Definitions
- the present invention relates to hydraulic bending presses for deformation of sheet metal parts.
- the invention is concerned with bending presses of the type comprising a stationary upper platen and a movable lower platen actuated by at least three hydraulic jacks, two of which are placed at the lateral ends of the movable platen and at least one of which is placed at the center, these jacks being supplied from a single directional distribution system which controls the upward and downward movements of the movable platen.
- Machines of this type have an advantage in that parallel deformation of the opposite edges of the two platens takes place during operation of the press by virtue of the fact that the thrust force exerted by the jacks on the movable lower platen is uniformly distributed along this movable platen in order to form constant and accurate folding angles.
- This machine geometry is that of machines described in French patent No. 1,362,471.
- guiding means are provided for maintaining the movable platen parallel to the stationary upper platen during its displacements.
- these guide means consist of rotating rollers carried by the movable platen and placed in contact with guide tracks provided on stationary elements of the frame.
- these mechanical guiding means prove to be insufficient in the event that the resultant of the forces generated by the work performed is not located in the axis of the machine. In such a case, the movable platen is in fact subjected to a tilting torque. Under these conditions, by reason of the elasticity of the different parts of the machine as well as the elasticity of the guiding means themselves, these means prove to be incapable of maintaining either general parallelism or parallelism of the opposite edges of the two platens as is required for ensuring angular precision along the entire length of the bend.
- the machine to which the invention applies in accordance with the present Application is of a very special type. In fact, it involves the use of a single pressure source, a single distribution for control of movements and at least three working jacks, at least one of which is placed at the center.
- the techniques employed up to the present time are usually concerned with presses having two upper jacks and involve the use of a machine equipped with a unit for servo-distribution by means of a jack.
- the pressure established within the jack is solely a function of the work reaction which takes place in opposition to the movement of the jack, the servo-distributor being intended to control a volume of oil supplied to the jack.
- U.S. Pat. No. 2,343,167 offers a different approach to the transmission of eccentric forces.
- the general parallelism of the movable work platen is controlled in dependence on the position of a movable reference element. Since this reference element is not subjected to any work force, it completely sets aside the concept of parallel sags.
- the hydraulic balancing device calls for a variable-throttling element which is preset by the operator during preliminary tests and is therefore not automatically adapted to requirements in order to overcome the eccentric load displacement.
- preadjustment is an all-or-none adjustment operation controlled by microswitches.
- French patent No. 2,545,418 is basically concerned with a search for optimization of parallelism of the opposite faces of the platens and clearly demonstrates the importance of optimization.
- French patent No. 2,545,418 makes use of additional bearing points for one of the platens carried by auxiliary cross-members, in the same manner as French patent No. 2,347,992, and adds one or a number of supplementary jacks for bowing the other platen, the jacks themselves being carried by auxiliary cross-members.
- the present Application relates to a hydraulic circuit which makes it possible, while retaining this basic configuration of bending machines, to maintain general parallelism of the upper and lower platens as well as optimization of parallelism of the opposite faces of said platens, this being achieved under either centered or eccentric load conditions.
- the object of the invention is to control the force exerted by each jack which produces action on the movable platen on the one hand in order to ensure general parallelism and on the other hand, by producing action on the force applied by each jack in respect of the same value of opposing torque, in order to generate a curve of deformation of the movable lower platen, thus ensuring optimum parallel deformation of the two platens.
- the object of the invention is to provide a bending press for deformation of metals in sheet form, comprising a stationary upper platen and a movable lower platen actuated by at least three hydraulic jacks, two of which are placed at the lateral ends of the movable platen and at least one of which is placed at the center along the axis of said movable platen, the jacks being supplied from a hydraulic circuit provided with a pump driven by a motor, a directional distributor for controlling the upward and downward movements of the movable platen, a device for detecting the presence of any tilting torque on the movable platen, and a comparator and computer system connected to the detection device and having outputs for controlling a regulating system as a function of the detected tilting torque.
- all the jacks are connected to a common directional distributor via pressure control units controlled by the comparator and computer system.
- This system is capable of producing a continuous reduction of the pressure exerted on the jack located on the side opposite to the direction of the tilting torque and possibly also on the jack located at the center so as to produce an opposing torque as a function of the data received from the detection device.
- This opposing torque is capable on the one hand of counterbalancing the tilting torque in a continuous and proportional manner, thus guaranteeing general parallelism, and on the other hand of ensuring a constant parallel relationship between the work zones of the opposite edges of the platens which undergo deformation during a bending operation.
- the means provided for carrying out a pressure control operation on one or a number of the jacks which actuate the movable lower platen can give rise to different forms of construction.
- the device for detecting any tilting displacement of the movable platen as well as the comparator and computer device can be constructed in accordance with a number of different designs.
- the computer and comparator system has in addition an input for the entry of additional data defining variations in the general work conditions, the opposing torque being a function of a synthesis of the data received from the detection device and of those entered via the input,
- the pressure control units comprise a number of proportional pressure reducers corresponding to the number of jacks which actuate the movable lower platen and each reducer is associated with a single jack,
- the pressure control units each have a single proportional pressure reducer inserted in the hydraulic control circuit and connected to each hydraulic jack via a respective connecting valve adapted to apply to the corresponding jack either the normal pressure of the control circuit or a reduced pressure, the comparator system being capable in addition of producing action on either of these valves or on a number of valves as the case may be.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view in front elevation showing a bending press in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a view in end elevation.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate two different forms of construction of the hydraulic control circuit of the bending press in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram of the control circuit for the pressure reducers provided in the hydraulic circuit in the event that detection of tilting is carried out by measuring the distances of travel of the two ends of the lower platen, then by computing the difference which represents the tilt.
- the bending press shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is of the type comprising a stationary upper platen 1 and a movable lower platen 2.
- the upper platen is carried by a frame having two transverse end-plates 3.
- the lower platen 2 is mounted between two force transmission cross-members consisting of vertical panels 4 which form part of the frame.
- the platen 2 is actuated by three single-acting hydraulic jacks disposed symmetrically with respect to the median vertical axis X-Y of the machine. Two of these jacks 5a and 5b are placed near each end of the platen 2. So far as the third jack 5c is concerned, it is placed at the center along the axis X-Y.
- the jacks are supported on the vertical panels 4 of the frame of the machine and are intended to carry out the vertical displacements of the platen 2 and to apply the requisite upward work force on the platen at the time of bending of a metal sheet 7 between two tools adapted to the press, namely a punch 8 carried by the stationary upper platen 1 and a die 9 carried by the movable lower platen 2.
- the lower platen is guided by four pairs of rollers 10 mounted to rotate freely on the platen and placed in contact with vertical guide tracks provided respectively on a stationary spacer member 11 rigidly fixed to the cross-members 4 of the frame and on the stationary body of the central jack.
- the three jacks 5a, 5b, 5c are supplied from a directional distributor 12 as can be observed in the diagram of the hydraulic control circuit shown in FIG. 3.
- This circuit also includes a pump 13 driven by a motor 14.
- the displacement of the slide-valve of the distributor 12 in one direction or in the other permits upward or downward displacement of the lower platen 2, this last-mentioned displacement being carried out under the action of the weight of the platen.
- the present hydraulic circuit further includes pressure control units in the form of proportional pressure reducers 15a, 15b and 15c equal in number to the working jacks of the movable platen.
- pressure reducers are associated with one of these jacks as shown in the diagram of FIG. 3.
- the control pressure of the corresponding jack or jacks can be continuously reduced.
- a detection device is also provided for detecting any possible tilting motion of the movable lower portion 2 while the press is in use.
- this device is so designed as to be capable of detecting the appearance of any such tilting motion as well as the direction of this motion.
- the detection device thus provided is made up of two linear displacement transducers provided at both ends of the lower platen 2.
- These transducers designated by the general references 16a and 16b, can be optical-reading digital transducers or analog transducers of the inductive type, potentiometric type or the like.
- each transducer has a movable index 22 carried by the platen 2 and capable of moving opposite to a stationary vertical rule 23 which is rigidly fixed to one of the cross-members 4 of the frame, or conversely.
- each transducer is capable of measuring the range of displacement of the corresponding end of the movable platen 2.
- the two transducers just mentioned are each capable of transmitting an electric signal which is a function of the measured range of displacement. These two transducers are connected into an electronic circuit comprising a comparator and computer system 24 to which they are connected (as shown in FIG. 5) and which has power outputs A, B and C connected to the control elements of the reducers 15a, 15b, 15c.
- the comparator/computer is capable of determining whether there is identity of displacement or whether there exists on the contrary a difference corresponding to a tilting movement of the lower platen 2. Accordingly, the comparator is capable of determining both the magnitude of the tilting torque and the direction of torque.
- the comparator and computer 24 has an input E through which are entered the data defining the general work conditions.
- This instruction can be carried out at the time of programming if the acquisition of data is entirely manual as is usually the case in a numerical control system and/or at the beginning of the work operation if acquisition of data is obtained by a sensing probe system, microswitches or any other form of detectors for detecting the presence of sheet metal or of stress zones such as strain gages.
- the work conditions differ in the nominal position of the sheet metal part, namely the position which does not take positioning errors into account, in its length, its thickness and the type of tooling employed. It should be considered that these data form part of those usually communicated to the numerical control of the bending press when it is equipped with such a system. In this case, a single data transfer takes place via the input E from the numerical control.
- Bending can be normal, centered with a simple possibility of accidental displacement off-center and can be partly off-center or involve operations of different kinds such as bending, punching or die-stamping, and so on. These operations can be performed on tooling units which may be highly off-center in certain instances.
- the deformations of the platens are essentially dependent on the nature of these work conditions. It is for this reason that the comparator and computer have to take into account the data delivered to the input E in addition to those received from the transducers 16a and 16b in order to compute the magnitude of the signals delivered to the outputs A, B, C and transmitted to the reducers 15a, 15b, 15c respectively to the reducer 15 and to the connecting valves 21a, 21b, 21c in accordance with an embodiment described with reference to FIG. 4.
- These orders can be in particular either regulated supply of the output A alone or differentiated supply of the outputs A and C for tilting motion in one direction, or regulated supply of the output B alone or differentiated supply of the outputs B and C for tilting motion in the other direction.
- FIG. 4 illustrates another form of construction of the hydraulic control circuit of the present bending press.
- This form of construction differs from the preceding embodiment in the fact that provision is made for only one pressure reducer designated by the general reference 15.
- the hydraulic control circuit of the three jacks 5a, 5b and 5c is so arranged as to ensure the possibility of applying to each jack either the normal pressure derived from the pump 13 or a reduced pressure, the value of which is determined by the single reducer 15.
- these three connecting valves 21a, 21b and 21c are connected to the comparator-computer as is the case with the pressure reducer 15.
- this comparator-computer supplies simultaneously the pressure reducer 15 and two of the valves 21a, 21b, 21c in order to cause a reduction in pressure in the central jack and the working jack located on the side opposite to that on which the eccentric load is applied. This permits the development of an opposing torque which counterbalances the tilting torque and restores general parallelism.
- the device for detecting the appearance of a tilting torque on the movable lower platen could be constructed differently from the design which is contemplated in the two examples described earlier and which involves monitoring of a difference in displacement of one end of the movable platen with respect to the other. It would in fact be possible to make use of a detection system comprising a number of strain gages suitably disposed in order to detect differences in the forces exerted on the two portions of the movable platen. The strain gages thus provided would in that case be connected to a comparator/ computer circuit which makes it possible to determine both the appearance of a difference between the forces exerted and the direction of this difference.
- the pressure reducing units could also be designed differently on condition that they permit a reduction in pressure, not in a general manner for all the working jacks of the movable lower platen but for each of these jacks taken separately or for a number of jacks.
- the present invention thus makes it possible to retain the structure of machines provided with a single pressure source, a single distribution for the control of movements and at least three working jacks, at least one of which is placed at the center. This result is achieved under the general conditions of mechanical construction of these machines while at the same time permitting centered or eccentric work under conditions which retain general parallelism and optimization of parallelism of the opposite faces of the upper and lower platens.
